In collaboration, The Centre for Teaching and Learning and Indigenous Programs and Services proudly present a learning opportunity for non-Indigenous staff and faculty at UBC Okanagan. Join us on a transformative journey as we embark on the first installment of our learning lab series, designed to cultivate and amplify your allyship skills.
In this session, we will walk you through some strategies for finding open content to adapt or include within your learning resources, as well as best practices for attribution.
This virtual panel and roundtable discussion identifies ways to incorporate discipline-based knowledge building exercises on academic integrity in post-secondary classrooms.
Tired of solo writing sessions? Craving a supportive environment to fuel your creativity? Look no further than our weekly Writing Community, tailored for the UBCO community.
This session will provide an overview of the open education movement including what it is and why it matters.
Enrich your classroom experience with this interactive workshop that introduces how to lead a Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) course with an international partner university.
The Centre for Scholarly Communication (CSC) will be hosting weekly drop-ins to help answer your questions and guide your research.
This training will cover the basics of how to use Pressbooks to create and enhance content.
Do you have research papers, lab reports, essays, essay exams or other written assignments that are stressing you out? Stop by and ask us anything about how to succeed in writing these assignments
This workshop will introduce Generalized Linear Models (GLMs), which allow one to model non-Gaussian (i.e., non-normal) data.
By the end of this session, participants will be familiar with the three parts of GLMs (family of distribution, linear predictor, and link function) and will be able to decide what family of distributions and link function to choose for their data. They will also be able to interpret the output of the summary() function and diagnostic plots for (H)GLMs and recognize the limitations of (H)GLMs.
This session will provide participants with a more in-depth understanding of Creative Commons licenses and some of the potential pitfalls when using and assigning licenses to your work.
Are you planning to publish your research in an open access journal or book? Do you want to avoid falling prey to predatory publishers who charge exorbitant fees, provide poor quality control, and damage your reputation? If so, this workshop is for you!
This session will introduce participants to the various types of t-tests, including one-sample, two-sample, paired, and one-sided tests. Attendees will learn about the appropriate applications for each type and the visualization techniques that can enhance the interpretation of t-test results.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to apply and visually represent different t-tests, interpret their results, understand the implications of multiple testing corrections, and select the appropriate test for their data.
Ever found it challenging to answer the critical “So what” question in your research? Struggle no more!

This workshop will introduce Generalized Additive Models (GAMs), which allow one to fit models that are complex and nonlinear but easily interpretable, unlike many “black-box” machine learning models.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to fit GAMs in R using the mgcv package and understand the advantages of GAMs over GLMs and LMs.
Join us for an informal reception celebrating the remarkable achievements of UBC Okanagan faculty.
